About a Russian woman it is so much written and said that the study, implying systematisation and synthesis of many, many facts, evidence, statements about it, can never be completed and therefore claim to objectivity.

The only circumstance that somehow justifies researcher in this case, is the amount of analysed sources and random (not functionalized) selection of them. Using the solid sampling method for "Russian woman" in a search engine, we selected about 100 sources provided on the Internet: scientific articles and journalism, interviews, topics in forums and in blogs. All the sources have the same significance for us in an

analysis. The totality of sources (speech, surveys data, etc.) were divided into several groups: 1) Russian men on the Russian women, 2) Russian women on the Russian women, 3) foreign women on the Russian women, 4) Foreign men on the Russian women.

Russian men on the Russian women. Russian men contributing mental properties of Russian women as the most significant - 18% and their role in the family - 18%. Among psychological traits (loyalty, reliability, diligence, sensitivity, the ability to love) prevails loyalty (recollect Pushkin's Tatiana!). Typical examples: "Our beautiful girlfriends... will be faithful to bail us guys of Russia", "Russian women to the same, as a rule, are very loyal, and the family appeared to be strong ".

Group of qualities "the role in the family" were those who imagine the woman as a wife, mother and the family foundation. Among the most significant for men, naturally, is the presentation of women in the role of a wife (over 60%), while on maternity has just over 10% encountered contexts "Russian women - the most popular bride in the world, they combine many qualities that contribute to a strong

family, sometimes not even aware of his appointment - girlfriend to be faithful wife and loving mother".

External beauty is a little inferior of the dominant characteristics (spiritual one still is more significant). Men say that Russian women are beautiful (37% contexts), even an excellent (25%), charming (25%), monitor themselves and their appearance (13%). The importance of women for Russia (12%) emphasises their crucial role in the history and culture of Russia. Thus, a modern philosopher and philologist Gachev says of the Russian woman as a "entity of Russian life." In some instances, it was stated that it was a Russian woman phenomenon reflected itself Russian and wealth of gene pool ("This is a combination of rich natural gene pool, as in the blood of any human being, born anywhere in the vast commonwealth, either Kiev or Vladivostok, the blood of many Peoples meets!").

The exclusiveness of Russian women mentioned (12% contexts): she is perceived as a mystery (perhaps "mysterious Russian soul" - is, first of all, female soul), a miracle ("how can we deprive ourselves of such a miracle as our Russian women"), exclusiveness ( "Russian women are most beautiful women in the world", "nowhere in the world you can meet so many beautiful women, etc.). The share of other qualities allocated by Russians, is much lower. Thus, the intellectual sphere is only 6%, it is easy to explain - men still could not put the intellectual abilities of women on a par with their own ("it is characteristic of Russian women that female logic, in fact, means the absence of any logic" ).

Among other characteristics manliness mentioned (6%), popularity among men (6%), women's fate (or what is called "the female share) 4% and pragmatism 4% . Note that in this sample there virtually are no negative character traits and behaviours. This is not to say that men idealize Russian women, the fact is that Russian men are discussing, as a rule, women in general, rather than Russian women, it is the words were excluded from many samples.

Foreign women on the Russian women. Utterances selection of women from other countries is small and consists of the views of American, Canadian, Dane and Malta women. It is noted that Russian women seriously compete in the marriage "market" and constitute a real menace to the local women ("Russian women are coming" where "are coming" is understood as invasion, which can not be stopped). The natural reaction is charging Russian brides for immoral behaviour (25% of all contexts): an unscrupulous, the easy accessibility and prostitution (Russian women tend to "engage in prostitution to earn money by any means"). But foreign women note the beauty of Russians (38% contexts): "Women are such beautiful there, returning home you notice the difference at once" or "Men from police also fell under Russian illegal fascination." One of the most debated topics is the "passivity" of the Russian women: "Why are Russian women so passive?".

American and Canadian call Russians to activity, ambitious, aggressive type of conduct. But it is aggressiveless behavior of Russian women allows them to be "perfect wives" for the men tired of emancipation of the West. Is it well? The issue is so complex that we will refrain from responding.

Foreign men on the Russian women. In general, foreigners emit as the most important characteristic of Russian women - her beauty (it is a corporeal beauty) - 25% of all contexts. For example, "Russian women are not even just beautiful, they are madly beautiful, so beautiful that it is not the word to explain," I have often been going to Europe, saw a lot of pretty women, but now I understand that there are in Russia only, astonishingly charming and feminine." Beauty disclose through appeal, charisma, charm, sexuality, sophistication, elegance, etc. It is important the femininity ("They are more womanly. Russian women are painted and kept more femininity than Swiss"). It is noted that the Russian women monitor themselves, have a sense of taste, allowing them to look good. Often referred to the beauty of the eyes, and in a variety of contexts: "They have extraordinarily beautiful eyes" and "They all are witches there! Perhaps she has eyes green and glitter! She will bewitch you and strip off."

Exclusiveness of Russian women close with this feature (13%): foreigners think they are mysterious, unlike the other women, better than others: "Contemporary Russian women, are able to combine the mystery of Slavic and sophistication of Europeans with most incomprehensible way", "I do not know, of course, what they have such a especial that they are attractive." Foreigners also allocate such feature of Russian women, as emancipation (9%): "Lovely, touching, sacrificial creations" appeared very energetic, business-like and perky, harshly suppressing the attacks on their rights", "Independence of Russian women, their obeylessness to traditional social, behavioral and sexual norms. "Although, I believe that emancipation is not the dominant behaviour, as evidenced by statements of foreigners on mental qualities of Russian women and their role in the family. For example: "The general view of Western men: Russian women are kinder, more careful, thrifty, and they are good wives", "Russian woman to me - it is woman who devotes herself entirely to her man - father, son, but most of all, to her husband and lover. In this sense, she has no equal."

Among the mental qualities the next highlight: kindness, warmth, humanity, sincerity, the ability to love, care, devotion ("openness to mental contacts it is a distinctive feature of Russian women") - that is the quality that does not belong to emancipated aggressive type of behavior. Among the other features highlight: emotional behaviour 6%, the ability to organize the communication 5%, high professionalism 5%, aggressive behaviour 4%, high intellectual ability 4%, the popularity among men 4%, immoral behaviour 3%, dependence on men 3%.

Interestingly, the foreigners appreciate the intellectual abilities of Russian women: "What is the difference between a blond from Russia and blond in common? The blonde from Russia can play chess", "high level of education and training." Overally, the attitude to Russian women is very positive, although the inhomogeneous. The most positive feedback goes from the Americans and the Japanese, less positive - from the French and Italians. Germans are the most negative (for example, "They are like women prostitutes", "You have to be afraid treacherous Russian women, no less than insidious Russian Mafia" etc.)

Russian women on the Russian women.The most significant factor of their external appearance Russian women contribute their beauty (16% of all statements). Emphasis charisma, attractiveness, femininity, beauty: "Russian women - most beautiful", "the foreigners compose legends about our beauties of the Kursk and Orel", "they are beautiful by soul and body, but what distinguishes our women - is the desire to be pleased. The mental qualities slightly lag (13%), among which are kindness, loyalty, dedication, diligence, reliability, patience, lack of mercantileness.

These qualities are extremely important for the family because, in general, the family remains a major asset for Russian women: "They put family first. They are always ready to sacrifice their brilliant career in order to be with her husband and children", "Our woman naturally raises family above career." The role of the wife is more important than the mother: "They have kind heart. If they marry, they are given to a man in full", "Russian woman is natural in her adoption of the behaviour and actions of her husband. This does not mean that she is not trying to affect them. She just does not try to reject them. She is always with her husband and other members of family (But on the other hand: "Care of children - perhaps is the most important in the lives of Russian women.")

Intellectual and spiritual spheres is presented in 9% of the speech, that says about the noncoincidence of vision of their capabilities with those stereotypes that exist in society (both Russian and foreigner men as well estimate intelligence of Russian women less). Among the qualities of this group are mentioned ingenuity, education, great ability to learning and creative work, self-improvement, spirituality. Therefore, we can not say that "Russian women are women with a lot of understated self-appraisal." Rather, because of the influence of Russian intelligence stereotypes of women they wrongly estimate lower.

The intellectual sphere is close to labour one (7% contexts), in which professionalism, the lack of careerism, endurance, hard work, initiative, the performance of men's responsibilities associated with heavy physical labour emphasized.

Russians evaluate themselves as unique, unlike any who: "Russian women are unique creatures", "Russian woman has a unique, rich experience of self-dependence and development", etc. The uniqueness is a breeding ground in order to perceive themselves as different from all the personality qualities such as naturalness, independence, inner nobility, individuality, seamless nature, harmony: "Her whole nature can not tolerate the half-way policy", "All subject to our women. And each of them is worthy of becoming queen". "We clothe for fun, we

like to invent something that's interesting", etc.

Among the other remaining manifestations of the characteristics the heroism mentioned (7%). It was expressed in the sacrifice oneself and on the contrary, omnipotence. Sphere of conduct - 7%, which are the major features as the sensitivity, tolerance offs, responsibility, the popularity both among the males and in the model business (5%); the emotionality (5%), which emerges in the quest to extremes, reckless, unpredictability.

Among the negative characteristics reference to immoral conduct (3%) found, lack of taste (3%) and 2% of greed. Note that the negative field occupies only 8% of the sum of all fields. Overally, we can say that the whole world recognizes the uniqueness of Russian women, their extraordinary beauty, a rare mental qualities and the ability to combine harmoniously the professional qualities and the ability to create a family comfort.

It remains to wish to Russian ladies greater confidence of their forces and not only demand by society of all the different talents of Russian women, but (despite the patriarchal relapses) adequately praise of all these qualities.
